The ABC of Animals - Fantastic!

Hey there, do you know your ABCs? How about your animal ABCs? If not, it's time to learn them, as we go from the A to the Z of beautiful animals.

A is for Alligator. This Alligator is white not because it's an albino, but because it is a 'leucistic' alligator, one of the famous white alligators found only in Black Pearl, New Orleans.

B is of course for Bear, as in these two grizzly bears enjoying a game of play fight.

C is for Cheetah, hunting on the Kenyan safari.

D is for this mother Donkey, nursing her foal.

E just has to be Elephant. In this photo - the elephant in the room people are ignoring.

F is for these cute Fennec Foxes, a whole family of them!

G is for Giraffes. These two are play fighting in the Ithala game reserve, South Africa.

H is for horses. In this case - wild horses in the Erlebnispark wildlife and theme park, Germany.

I is for this colorful Marine Iguana on Espanola Island, part of the Galapagos Islands.

J is for Jaguar. This yawning Jaguar can be found in the Toronto Zoo.

K is for Koala, a vulnerable species. This one seems like it just woke up.

L is for this ring tailed Lemur mother, holding her newly born twins.

M is for Moose, like this one photographed in Denalit National Park, Alaska.

N is for Narwhal, the medium sized whale that spends all year in the arctic. The male Narwhals have a long, straight tusk that is in actuality, biologists say, an elongated extension of their upper left canine tooth. That's some tooth.

O is for Owl. This common barn owl was caught mid flight.

P is for Penguin, what else? A family of emperor penguins in Antarctica agreed to pose for this shot.

Q is for Quoll. This animal is a meat eating marsupial which lives in Australia, New Guinea and Tasmania only.

R is for Rhinoceros, like this calm Rhino enjoying the water and the oxpecker birds pecking at the insects on his body. The Rhinos and the birds have an understanding: I won't shoo you away, and you will eat the bugs that annoy me.

S is for Seal. This 'teen' southern elephant seal can be found on the island of South Georgia, part of the South Sandwich Islands in the Southern Atlantic Ocean.

T is for Tarsier, the smallest primate in the world. Here are two of these adorable little guys clutching at a tree, their big golden eyes curious.

U is for Uakari, a larger, but still small, primate which has a short take but is apparently a good shaver, with no hair on its face. Their faces come in a variety of shades from pink to deep red, and they live in the tropical forests of South America.

V is for the dreaded Vulture. This one is a Cape Vulture taking flight at the Rhino and Lion Nature Reserve, South Africa.

W just has to be the big, bad, snarling wolf.

X is for Xanthareel, a yellow eel that always looks surprised.

Y is for the Yak, a long-haired bovine found throughout the Himalayan region of south Central Asia. The Yak is one of the oldest domesticated animals, and has been helping men out for thousands of years. This one is munching on some grain near the sacred Yundrok Yumtso Lake, Tibet.

And we end with Z, for Zebra of course! This zebra herd are slacking their thirst at a watering hole at the Etosha National Park, Namibia.
